2680 Series
Data Acquisition Systems
Technical Data
The Fluke 2680A Data Acquisition
System and Fluke 2686A Data Logging
System (the 2680 Series) are
the newest in a long line of Fluke
precision data acquisition products.
Both systems feature:
• 120-channel capacity chassis
designed for small- and largescale
precision data acquisition
applications.
• User-scalability from 20 to 120
universal analog input channels;
can include digital input/output
and alarm contact outputs in a
single chassis.
• Ethernet TCP/IP protocol
with network interface for
10/100 BaseT.
• Powerful HMI development
software and OPC server
software available.
Key system features:
• 20 to 120 universal analog inputs per chassis; systems to +2,000
channels
• Stand-alone data logger operation with the 2686A
• Large scalable LAN systems using the 2680A with
10BaseT/100BaseT
• Two types of Universal Input Modules: high-isolation precision
modules or fast scan modules, with 16- to 18-bit resolution
• Throughput of more than 3,000 channels per-second per chassis
with 2680A-FAI modules
• Superior
thermocouple measurement accuracy (J, K, R, S, T, N, L, U,
C, B)
• 20 digital I/O and 8 form C, 1 Amp relay output modules for direct
control of equipment
• Up to 300V input isolation, 1600V transient overvoltage protection
(2680A-PAI)
• Universal input conditioning for any input, on any channel, in any
combination (Vdc, Vac, Ohms, frequency, RTD,
thermocouple,
thermistor or current)
• ATA flash memory card for stand-alone operation—from 16 MB to
1 GB (2686A only)
• Multiple power sources: 100 to 240 V and 9 V to 45 V dc
• Includes Fluke DAQ Software which:
• Controls all 2680 Series functions and data files
• Provides real-time and historical trending
• Also communicates with and controls Fluke 2640A,
2645A NetDAQ products
Fluke 2680 Series:
A powerful choice
The Fluke 2680 Series offers the
choice of networked data acquisition,
stand-alone data logging, or a
combination of both. Choose from
two basic chassis models:
2680A Data Acquisition
System chassis
The Fluke 2680A Data Acquisition
System is the choice for multichannel
applications requiring reliable
Ethernet communications. It
features a front-end style data
acquisition system that communicates
and distributes data anywhere
you need it to go. The
10BaseT and 100BaseT communications
interface makes it compatible
with both older and newer
network installations.
2686A Data Logging
System chassis
The Fluke 2686A Data Logging
System writes data to a memory
card for easy retrieval and storage,
making it ideal for remote locations
and mobile or non-computer
assisted data logging applications.
